it's D because 5 time the difference of means it's gotta be 5 time the answer of a problem in parenthesis , the rest is quite logical so... yeah it's D
The equation we'll use for this is:Total Gifts = Veronica's Gifts (v) + Natalie's Gifts (n).
12 = v + n
The problem says Veronica got 3 times as many gifts as Natalie.
You can directly translate this into an equation!
v = 3 * n = 3n. This means we can replace any v with 3n.
So, 12 = v + n = 3n + n = 4n
12 = 4n
3 = n. Natalie got 3 gifts.
We can now plug back in for Veronica's gifts:
v = 3n
v = 3(3)
v = 9. Veronica got 9 gifts.

Answer:
It seems that your options aren't correct as the right answer is -5.3333... (recurring)
Step-by-step explanation:
1) 2x + 4 = 20 + 5x (subtract by the smallest unknown)
-2x -2x
2) 4 = 20 + 3x
-20 -20 (now subtract each side by 20 as we want to leave the unknown on one side and another number on the other side.
3) -16 = 3x (Divide each side by 3)
÷3 = ÷3
4) -5.33333... = x
<h3>Now we have found x but if you're unsure you can substitute to see if your answer is correct.</h3><h3>2 x -5.3333 + 4 = -6.6666</h3><h3>20 + 5 x -5.3333= -6.6665</h3><h3>Our answer is correct! (When answers are rounded, it is equal to the same thing).</h3>
